Located on Neighbourhood Square in the heart of the town centre, it will feature 249 new rental homes alongside residents’ amenities over three new blocks, just a short walk from the new Brent Cross West station, which connects passengers to central London in just 12 minutes.

The topping out reflected the progress on the scheme so far, with dignitaries from Related Argent joining the Galliford Try team to celebrate with a ceremonial filling of the hole with cement by John German, Managing Director of Residential Investments for Invesco.

Also underway is Galliford Try's development on plot 14, which will feature 286 apartments with a range of amenities for residents.
